Lunch gathering for Friends-In-Need (Team 1)

On 13th May 2017, Team 1 organised a lunch gathering for their Friends-in-Need (FIN) living in the neighborhood of Blk 170, Lor 1, Toa Payoh.

The Team chatted with the FINs over a buffet.  They also get to meet other people living in the neighborhood.

When Frederic Ozanam started the Society of St Vincent de Paul in 1833 with a few friends, they were going out to meet the poor in Paris - bringing the love of God through charity to the poor.  It organizing the lunch, the Team hopes to emulate a bit of the original spirit of the Society.

The FINs appreciated the lunch and Vincentians get to hear some of the struggles and challenges faced by the poor there.  


The FINs helped in setting up and clearing up the venue.
